SUMMARY:Arcana Books Hosts A Celebration For Bettina Hubby
DESCRIPTION:On Sunday\, July 10th from 4 to 6PM\, please join Arcana: Books on the Arts\, Klowden Mann\, and LAND (Los Angeles Nomadic Division) to celebrate the release of Bettina Hubby’s Thanks for the Mammaries. This artist’s book documents the various iterations of Hubby’s ongoing project Thanks for the Mammaries\, the Facebook feed which was originally installed at the LAND HQ from October through November of 2015. \nIn 2014\, Hubby announced her Breast Cancer diagnosis on Facebook and asked her friends and community to submit “boob-related imagery.” People showered Hubby with images\, videos\, and verbiage that helped her heal\, and inspired her to pay it forward. Touched by the uplifting effect of this communal support\, Hubby sent out a call to artists to submit works for an exhibition. The exhibitions and online Facebook feed displayed the outpouring of support that resulted from Hubby’s call to action; selections of which are documented in the publication. “What continues to bring me the most satisfaction is the feedback regarding my approach\, in that it has been positively impacting and inspiring people who have (and even many who have not) faced illness in their lives\, or in their loved ones’ lives. This is why I wanted to release this as a book to a wider audience. This book is dedicated to the medicinal power of boobishness”. \n8675 Washington Boulevard\, Culver City\n310.458.1499 \n

SUMMARY:Arcana Hosts A Book Signing + Conversation With Johnston Marklee
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday\, July 9th from 4 to 6PM\, please join Arcana: Books on the Arts in welcoming their very own architects\, Johnston Marklee partners Sharon Johnston and Mark Lee\, for a conversation and book signing inside the gorgeous Arcana showroom they created.  The afternoon will address the architectural firm’s design process and engagement with contemporary art practices in conversation with artist Veronika Kellndorfer\, one of the collaborators on their new monograph\, HOUSE IS A HOUSE IS A HOUSE IS A HOUSE IS A HOUSE. \nThe talk will be followed by a book signing. \n8675 Washington Boulevard\, Culver City\n310.458.1499 \nAbout Johnston Marklee\nFounded by partners Sharon Johnston\, F.A.I.A. and Mark Lee in 1998\, Johnston Marklee is internationally recognized for its diverse portfolio of architecture\, engaging the physical and cultural circumstances of each project through a precise synthesis of structural form\, materiality\, and atmospheric light. The work of the firm pays tribute to a specific Southern Californian interpretation of modernism\, and at the same time operates at the intersection of a global and local dialogue. Since founding Johnston Marklee\, Johnston and Lee have forged a leading role in the cultural discourse around contemporary art and architecture\, eliciting design collaborations with distinguished museums\, foundations\, and artists around the world. Complementing this far-reaching network\, the firm’s work is recognized for being deeply rooted in the history and foundations of the discipline. \nAbout Veronika Kellndorfer\nOriginally through painting and more recently through photography\, Veronika Kellndorfer has been concerned with the physical and social construction of space. In her recent body of work\, Kellndorfer photographed classic modernist architectural landmarks in Los Angeles including the only house built by Oscar Niemeyer in the United States\, Rudolph Schindler’s Lovell Beach House\, John Lautner’s Silvertop home in Silver Lake\, and Frank Lloyd Wright’s Freeman House\, among others. Yet\, rather than capturing the iconic wide-angle views of these famously photographed homes\, Kellndorfer focuses on the intimate details of windows and reflections and how they reveal the ephemeral nature of seeing\, as well as the subjectivity of space. This ambiguity of space is heightened by the artist’s use of highly reflective glass panels that are often life-sized\, and when displayed in a public setting\, museum or gallery\, invites the viewer to experience his or her own subjective surroundings. \nHer exhibition Tropical Modernism: Lina Bo Bardi will be on view at Christopher Grimes Gallery from July 8th through September 2nd\, 2016.

SUMMARY:Le Fête de la Musique Comes To La Dijonaise

Since that time\, it has progressed around the world. \nCome enjoy fine French food and fun French music. Call (310) 287-2770 for reservation.

SUMMARY:Arcana Hosts A Double Book Signing: Deanna Templeton and Clint Woodside
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday\, June 18th from 5 to 7pm\, please join Arcana: Books on the Arts for a double book signing for these two amazing releases\, Deanna Templeton’s The Swimming Pool and Clint Woodside’s Undercover Cars. \n8675 Washington Boulevard\, Culver City\n310.458.1499 \nDeanna Templeton’s The Swimming Pool is a newly published photographic essay from this Southern California-based artist. Departing from her well-known street portraiture\, this collection offers a deep and inspiring view of the human form underwater. The series was born after an impromptu nude swimming pool shoot of her husband – the artist Ed Templeton – which spurred an eight-year journey in the study of light\, expression\, and the enigma of water. Shooting entirely on color\, black-and-white\, and Polaroid film\, Templeton sends her friends into the pool to be photographed in their truest form. \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nClint Woodside’s Undercover Cars was first issued in 2013 as a Deadbeat Club zine and has been newly re-conceived and substantially enlarged as an elegant hardcover book. Containing fifty-two images of cars parked in plain sight\, but covered from the elements\, it is the culmination of a series of color photographs – shot on film and printed in the dark room – spanning five years\, scores of autos\, and thousands of miles from Los Angeles to Banghok.

SUMMARY:Arcana Hosts A Book Signing With Olivia Bee And Special Guest\, BØRNS
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday\, May 14th from 5:00pm – 7:00pm\, please join Arcana: Books on the Arts as they host Olivia Bee in a celebration of the publication of her book Kids In Love. Joining Olivia will be her friend and very special musical guest\, BØRNS\, who will present an acoustic set as part of the evening’s festivities. \nOlivia Bee is celebrated for her dreamy\, evocative portraits and landscapes rich with implied narratives of intimacy\, freedom\, and adventure. Her first full-length book Kids in Love from Aperture showcases two bodies of photographic work\, including the series “Enveloped in a Dream” that first brought Bee recognition as a teenager. These images offer a visual diary of girlhood friendship and the exploration of self\, showcasing Bee’s unique ability to convey the bittersweet nostalgia of adolescence on the brink of adulthood and new possibilities. The second\, “Kids in Love”\, is a photographic chronicle of her circle of friends and new loves\, capturing both the pleasures and terrors of the fleeting passage of romanticized youth. While the work continues to evolve\, what remains constant is her seductive use of color and photographic artifact\, as well as the immediacy and charge of each image. \nBee gives voice to the self-awareness and visual fluency of the millennial generation. Experiences are sharply felt\, and easily communicated and shared\, generating visual records that render these memories as significant as the moments themselves. Tavi Gevinson\, founding editor of the online magazine “Rookie” as well as Bee’s frequent collaborator and model writes about the work and about the role of images as social currency in today’s image-driven world. \n8675 Washington Boulevard\n310-458-1499 \n

DESCRIPTION:THIS SCREENING HAS BEEN CANCELLED. WE APOLOGIZE FOR THE LATE NOTICE. \nJoin us on Monday\, December 7th from 7:30 – 9:30pm for an evening of films including the screening of Standing on Sacred Ground – Fire and Ice. \nIn Part 1 of the 4-part documentary series Standing on Sacred Ground\, from Ethiopia to Peru\, indigenous customs protect biodiversity on sacred lands under pressure from religious conflicts and climate change. \nIn the Gamo Highlands of Ethiopia\, scientists confirm the benefits of traditional stewardship even as elders witness the de- cline of spiritual practices that have long protected trees\, meadows and mountains. Tensions with evangelical Christians over a sacred meadow erupt into a riot. In the Peruvian Andes\, the Qeros\, on a pilgrimage to a revered glacier\, are driven from their ritual site by intolerant Catholics. Qeros potato farmers face a more ominous foe: global warming is melting glaciers\, their water source. Andes farmers\, scientists and visiting Ethiopians struggle to adapt indigenous agriculture to the changing climate. \nUS 2014 56 mins.  Directed by Christopher McLeod \nSpecial Guests in Attendance: Sacred Ground director Christopher McLeod and Faith Against Fracking director David Braun. \nScreening with: Faith Against Fracking \nTickets are free but space is limited.  Please make a reservation to secure a seat. \nParking is located at the Free Valet in the lot on Helms Avenue and Venice Boulevard. \nThe Helms Bakery Festival events run Thursday\, December 3rd through Wednesday\, December 9th.  We hope you join us for a film screening or discussion\, enjoy an art installation or theatre performance\, or come to all of the events around our campus. The Festival umbrella brings together a collective of artists who have much to share about shaping a better future.

SUMMARY:Helms Bakery Partners With VisionLA To Screen "100 Mules Walking the Los Angeles Aqueduct"
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Sunday\, December 6th from 7:00 – 9:00pm for an evening of films including the screening of 100 Mules Walking the Los Angeles Aqueduct. \n100 Mules is pure poetry in motion and not to be missed. On the centenary of the opening of the Los Angeles Aqueduct\, Lauren Bon and the Metabolic Studio performed One Hundred Mules Walking the Los Angeles Aqueduct\, a commemorative artist action to connect Los Angeles to its water source. This performative parade of 100 mules traversed the 240 miles of pipelines and canals that bring water from the Eastern Sierras through a gravity-fed system to Los Angeles; passing through three counties and nearly 50 communities along the way took over a month to complete. \nMule power shaped the modern West and was a primary force in constructing the aqueduct\, an engineering feat that took only seven years to complete despite the rough terrain. One Hundred Mules Walking the Los Angeles Aqueduct documents this action with a resolution to move forward into the next hundred years with renewed appreciation for this vital resource. Let it be resolved that the citizens of Los Angeles will do better at utilizing this life-giving resource in the next one hundred years! \nUS 2014 60 min.

SUMMARY:Claudia Borgna's Performance Piece\, "Beauty Parlour" Comes To Helms Walk
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Sunday\, December 6th at 3:00pm on Helms Walk\, our pedestrian plaza on Helms Avenue\, for an outdoor performance piece by Claudia Borgna called Beauty Parlour\, following the theme of domestic labor she also explores in Domestic Apocalypse. In this piece\, the performer wears a domestic uniform and dusts and cleans trees and plants in a public outdoor area. She engages passersby in cleaning as appropriate. \nArtist’s statement: \nDomestic economies are determined by global capitalist economy. Could the domestic economy affect our social public economy instead? The economy of cleaning might be the solution to clean up an economy of greed that is responsible for the destruction of the planet. \nDomestic work is an indispensable part of life. \nLooking after our surroundings\, caring\, cleaning\, cooking\, gardening\, are domestic duties and part of maintenance work. Renewable repetitions subtly change within the gestures of care\, transforming and maintaining the sustainability of love. The pedagogy of maintenance is my daily practice: my resistance to capitalism. \nParking is located at the Free Valet in the lot on Helms Avenue and Venice Boulevard. \nThe Helms Bakery Festival events run Thursday\, December 3rd through Wednesday\, December 9th.  We hope you join us for a film screening or discussion\, enjoy an art installation or theatre performance\, or come to all of the events around our campus. The Festival umbrella brings together a collective of artists who have much to share about shaping a better future.

SUMMARY:Diana Wyenn's Interactive Performance "Compassio\N" Comes To Helms Walk
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Sunday\, December 6th from 1:00 – 3:00pm on Helms Walk\, our pedestrian plaza on Helms Avenue\, for Diana Wyenn’s interactive performance Compassio\N. Compassion is an ancient idea upon which all the major religions place great importance. Compassion is also quickly becoming a new age buzzword. \nInvestigating the historical and contemporary uses\, references\, and definitions of compassion through the lens of Climate Change\, this series of short mixed media performances directed by Diana Wyenn confronts our relationship to the term and the ambition\, as well as its actual embodiment and exclusion in local\, U.S.\, and global culture today. \nPerformed outside in unexpected places at unexpected times and using movement\, text\, screens\, intimacy\, and humor\, Compassio\N surprises and compels its unsuspecting audience to ask: What form does compassion take in our capitalist society? If compassion is the response to the suffering of others that motivates a desire to help\, who is suffering? And how much motivation is needed before one helps? \nParking is located at the Free Valet in the lot on Helms Avenue and Venice Boulevard. \nThe Helms Bakery Festival events run Thursday\, December 3rd through Wednesday\, December 9th.  We hope you join us for a film screening or discussion\, enjoy an art installation or theatre performance\, or come to all of the events around our campus. The Festival umbrella brings together a collective of artists who have much to share about shaping a better future.
